A dynamic collaboration between filmmakers and scientists dedicated to bringing a wide variety of science stories to the big screen.
About the Wonder Collaborative
The Wonder Collaborative is our feature film unit at the Science Communication Lab.
Our award-winning documentaries take audiences on journeys to the horizons of human knowledge by delving into the nuances, complexities, and awe of scientific discovery.
At the Science Communication Lab, we use film and other media to inspire curiosity, captivate audiences, and create new ways to engage with science. Through storytelling, collaboration, and experimentation, we connect scientists, educators, and the public in new ways—humanizing science and expanding how it is shared, discussed, and experienced.

OBSERVER embarks on an experiment in which a series of keen-eyed observers - scientists, artists, a hunter - are brought to a range of locations around the world, and asked to simply describe what they see. What unfolds is a deep exploration and celebration of the power of observation: what happens when you find new ways to sense & perceive the world around you?
